What makes a game have "soul" ?

BASED

It's completely arbitrary and is based purely on whether someone likes or dislikes something for no particular reason

belly too big

not looking like a fucking Pixar/Disney animation for starters

can you post a pixar or disney dragon that looks like that.

Honest request I'd like to see more.

Anything that takes a risk or is seen "incorrect" for how a game should be made. Just look at Godhand, who the fuck thought that would be a good idea on paper? IF devs don't develop outside their comfort zone, we'll be playing shooters for the next 20 years.

There needs to be a sequel. Yea Forums will then automatically assign soul to the original game and proceed to shit on the sequel

old = soul
new = soulless

Fat dragon bellies = SOUL

It's just a buzzword for when you like an older thing, but you're too dumb to explain why. Soul is a meme for brainlets.

Would you rather prefer low poly muppets?

So soul is stored in the belly?

Why are there no real humanoid dragons and aliens out there bros? That makes me sad.

Why does Yea Forums like this guy so much.
I don't get it.

If I have learned anything from Mass Effect it's that half of Yea Forums are xeno- and borderline furryfags.

I don't get it too.
Nestor and Bubba are better.

A game has soul if it takes the risk of not being liked by some in order to be loved by others.
Trying to be liked by everybody through the use of a generic and "safe" art style is what soulless games do.

prove it

Fatfans, scalies, and scaly fatfans.

Artstyle, how cheap the gameplay feels, quality of voice acting/music/sfx, etc.

I don't have to prove anything, because it should be clear as soon as you look at them.

I'd rather prefer something unique, something that doesn't look like copy/paste mass produced trash.

I think this is the best perspective to have. Games like Destiny, CoD and Anthem, whilst not necessarily ‘bad’ games convey a feeling that they were designed more to generate money from players rather than generate any degree of emotional connection from them.

I loved old Spyro. I dislike this furshit garbage, however . Something tells me this game was a commercial success

Don't worry.
All this love for big, soft bellies is entirely ironic.

I think it's the internet just exposing people to so many different viewpoints. People never even realized chubby people could be cute now everyone is after that dad bod.

Kind of like how there used to be cat and dog people, now everyone would like a cat, a dog and also basically every other animal as a pet.

It's difficult to describe in words. It's a quality which exceeds mere polish of game mechanics and narrative. It's the feeling that the devs actually give a shit about what they are making. It's not an easy feeling to fake.

As said, it depends on the authenticity, sincerity, how ever you call it. Something money influenced games don't have.
There is usually a noticeable difference between characters that are likeable, multifaced, complex or cute and so on because their creators genuinely cared about them or because the publisher desperately wants to pander people and forces in fanservice, stereotypes, shitty but popular tropes and a fucked plot conistency because they never cared about the plot in the first place.
